The JRPG of Final Fantasy 1 is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Moogle with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 8.985 billion Final Fantasy 1ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Square. The average income tax rate is 67.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Final Fantasy 1ian economy, worth 943 trillion lire a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Information Technology, Gambling, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 105,058 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Trying to toast marshmallows in an electric fireplace just isn't the same, blue bloods are welcome in Final Fantasy 1, the nation's streets have become a winter wonderland of salt and sand, and residents are readily ratting out rats in restaurants. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Final Fantasy 1's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Crystals.

Final Fantasy 1 is ranked 18,131^st in the world and 1^st in Square Enix for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,386.59 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
